Hello,

I am running Net-BSD 0.8.  I have just installed XFree86 1.3 on my
machine.  I have set up the Xconfig file, and uncompressed all the
fonts.

When I try to run startx, I get:
Fatal error:  mode not specified.

I also get an error 32 (broken pipe).

How do I get this thing to go??

Thanks!!!

Matt
